Debby Brown's April Color Block pattern Cheer was released on the 1st. I decided to cut into my white and beige with red and blue highlights fabric stash to make the 16 patches. When I first saw the gallery picture, I thought, 'Half square triangles on point setting'. Yup! That's what the way the pattern is written. When I saw the black and white mock up page, I thought, 'could I use my Deb Tucker Square Squared Ruler'? You know, sew the corners opposite colors (in this case) to achieve the same look....
Here are my strips, by the way, I cut twice as many as I needed. oops...
I received this Deb Tucker Square Squared ruler set a few years ago for Christmas. I was pretty excited to unwrap it and try it out!!!
Linking up with Judy at Design Wall Monday
What? Wait, you just tease us with what you are going to do? Darn, I was looking forward to seeing a finished block. You could always make a bigger quilt with the extras. Have fun this week.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful blocks, it's going to be a fun quilt!
ReplyDeleteSuch pretty fabrics you are using. Happy quilting and have a great week.
ReplyDeleteI've become a bit of a ruler addict in the last year. Thanks for the heads up about this; I'll have to add it my shopping cart in the next shopping trip. =)
ReplyDeleteYour 16 patch blocks are so cute!!! Twice as many? Been there, done that! Twice as many quilts!
ReplyDeleteI like the blocks just as they are. Put a very neutral sashing in between them and they will be a lovely little quilt. But I think you have more in mind since you showed us the ruler. We shall have to wait and see.
